[quote=Anonymous]Absolutely agree to stay on resort and plan 1park/da at that age. If you have a typical early riser, plan to get up early for the 'Magic Hour' where they open the park early for resort guests. This isn't every day at every park so you'll need to check schedules, but for example most days it means Parts of Magic Kingdom are open just for resort guests between 7-8AM.

So for us ideal schedule at 3 would be to get up early and get to park at 7 for Magic hour / when things are quiet with no lines. Crowds start building 9:30/10 ish, so would plan to schedule Fast Passes in that time frame, and then by 12 or 1 we'd all be tired and head back to the resort for nap/swimming/quiet time.  Maybe head back to park in evening, or alternatively just get dinner somewhere or let kids play more at the resort pool.

Also of note - the park buses are pretty easy, but resort guests also get free parking in the main parking lot, which can be easy to. We did that our last day before leaving and it worked great - parked pretty near the front, as resort guests we got to walk in during Magic Hour to ride the ferry across  to the gates while the non-resort guests had to wait, and even though it was holiday crowds at that hour there were only 10-15 other folks on the ferry boat.  Spent the morning in the park hitting popular rides first during light crowds, the. Fast passed some rides midday and were done by ~1 when the crowds were getting big, then road the monorail back to the car. At our kids age they considered the ferry and monorail rides to parking part of the fun.[/quote]
